I bought a 2004 Nail trail top of the line hardtail frame for that year. Developed a crack around the bottom bracket after only 9000 miles in a year and ahalf. At around 9200 the right chainstay PULLED APART and had to get a new frame. They replaced my frame for free and the second one developed a crack around the bottom bracket after only about 5200 miles. Bought a 2006 Cannondale F800 and after almost 21,000 miles in just over 4 years still going strong, MADE IN THE USA.
@groMMit1981 check the date of the video. just recently they have been as fast or faster than 26ers for xc only. They just loose a little handling with them compared to 26ers so dont use them for downhill AM stuff. for xc though get a 29er
I just bought this bike and upgraded the crank to a 2x10 FSA SL-K carbon fiber and SL-K stem its sick....

25lbs? damn that is heavy. My specialized stumpjumper comp 29er was about 25.5lbs for half the price.
